So who's everyone supporting for 2008?

Beware of anyone running, who wants to be President. That would have to be the crappiest job in America, so the only reason someone would want to be President would be for the power. We've long passed the time when people ran for political office for public service and to help make this a better country.

SJ, on this post I couldn't agree more and it is a crying shame that it is true. Also, it is waaaay to early to be listening to Presidental political rhetoric. When did we get to the point where we start more than a year before the election, anyway?

I have a feeling Hillary would serve the people.

The person I would like to see as president, isn't even in the race....Colin Powell.

I would add that running and winning political office is the easiest road to riches outside of working for a hedge fund or private equity fund. Edwards and Romney are double dippers. The pols of today are tomorrows multi-millionaires.

Before the 2000 election, both parties were courting him but his wife said she'd leave him if he ran. And now that the dems can trot out the "He lied and misled us" card, I don't think he's electable. Further, I don't think he could take a primary, even in this weak field. The GOP needs a pretty clean break from this administration.

He's damaged goods. He lost the perception of his own integrity at the U.N.

Speaking of the next election:

The words CRAP SHOOT have never had such meaning

It's getting to be late afternoon in the empire

If one can use the Term "straight shooter" and politician in the same sentence
(gotta think about that)
I think Ron Paul comes the closest aside from the positions he takes on issues.
